Guitarist Gary Moore and Thin Lizzy's frontman Phil Lynott co-wrote this back in the seventies. The guitar and lyrics have such a sense of nostalgia and together with Lynott's vocals, who died at the age of 36, there is also a sense of mourning: "Looking back at the photographs..." In his lifetime, Lynott also published two books of poetry, which are now combined as one, and called by its echoing name 'Songs for while I'm Away.'
